'Gangs Of New York': Firefighters

'Singin' In The Rain': Pink Dress

Kathy Selden (Debbie Reynolds) wears a pink dress with a tulle skirt in one of the most iconic scenes from 1952's Singin' in the Rain. The appearance was very 1950s, but would have looked completely out of place in the 1920s, when the picture was set.
